Despite Israel’s ongoing economic downturn and high unemployment, foreign workers are still devising intricate ways to evade immigration authorities in order to find work in the country.
According to a report published by Israeli daily “Yedioyot Aharonot”, Israel’s immigration police have arrested an illegal Unkranian worker who said he arrived in Israel in a crate, travelling by boat from Odessa to Haifa.
The short, thin illegal alien crept into a crate that was part of a furniture shipment bound from Odessa to Israel. The alien arranged for somebody on board to provide him with meals every evening, even to take him out periodically for his other bodily functions. When that failed to happen on occasion, the worker had no choice but to take care of the that in his crate.
According to police, the alien was aware that if he entered the country via Ben Gurion Airport, he would surely be captured by immigration police. He therefore turned to the Russian Mafia in Kiev who provided him with safe passage to Israel in a crate along with a passport and a phoney visa.
When the alien’s crate reached Haifa, a Russian who was waiting for him took him to Jerusalem where he worked in a matza factory. The alien is now in a special facility awaiting deportation.
